Forgot Apple Watch Passcode? See How to Remove Passcode

When you forgot Apple Watch passcode, you can remove the passcode by using the paired iPhone. If you don’t have the paired device then clear the passcode directly from the Apple Watch. In this guide, you will learn how to remove passcode from Apple Watch using both methods.

Using paired iPhone to remove passcode

When your watch is paired with your iPhone, you can use the built-in Apple Watch app from iPhone to remove the passcode from the Watch. Once you delete the passcode, then you can set up the Apple Watch again and restore the backup from iPhone. So, let’s see how to do that.

Make sure both Apple Watch and iPhone are close together.

Run the “Apple Watch” app from iPhone and then select the “My Watch” tab.

Navigate to “General > Reset” option.

Here, on the Reset screen, Tap “Erase Apple Watch content and settings” option. Follow the onscreen instructions; Apple ID may be required to complete this step.

Let it complete the process, after that set up your watch and restore it from the backup.
